Friendship is the pot of gold under the rainbow in Patrice Leconte's entertaining, feather-light buddy movie, in which Daniel Auteuil's François cannot find himself a pal.

Superbly written French comedy with strong characters, some good jokes and a few subtle points to make about the importance of friendship in today's fast paced society.

The entire cast react to this trifle in a way which makes it taste very nice indeed.

Pure blague.

It’s light-hearted and breezy but never boring.

Worth flagging down.

There's not a great deal to chew on here beyond a couple of nice performances.

It's a jolly, undemanding romp.

Another breezy effort from Leconte, this anodyne comedy is a typically flimsy piece of French whimsy. Likeable but also easily forgettable.

Urbane and sophisticated.

Leconte might be looking for some new pals himself after that one.

Very patchy with an unconvincing lead character.

Daniel Auteuil can never make a bad movie, nor can one believe that he has no friends as he tries to make us imagine, but he's a funny, funny man.

...although there are few surprises to be had within My Best Friend's running time, the movie is rarely boring.

A buddy movie that actually ponders the nature of what it is to be a buddy.

Top CriticA much too light sit-com from a French filmmaking heavyweight.

Top CriticA little light and a little telegraphed, but still quite enjoyable.

Just [Dany] Boon's scenes and the music track would make a marvellous film on its own.
